I had posted this on the official forum and didn't keep a copy somewhere, so I recreate the guide here. Show Please note that this system is separate to Apple's iCloud system, as it caters for all platforms (iOS and Android). Do NOT rely on automatic saves when visiting the party boat or neighbours, it is
unreliable! The problem: This is an acknowledged bug: "Some players have experienced having different save data available for each account, which should not be the case. The team is currently correcting this problem." The cause: Theoretically these accounts are linked, in practise this works only partially. When logged in on both accounts, you will see the most recent cloud save for the linked accounts, but your facebook account is seen as the main account for cross-device portability. This leaves the Game Center ID lagging behind. Side note: Those who are digging around the internet might have noticed that cloudcell is owned by ndWare PTY ltd. This is the very same company. (See also: ndWare company info and history). The solution (or work-around):  2. Log off from your Game Center and in the game log off from Facebook. 3. Double-Press the home button on your device (the square), the list of active apps should show in the bottom panel. Long-press one of the apps, you'll see red icons with a minus in it appearing on all apps. Close them all. (Minimum are SFP and GC) 4. Hold the power button of your device, then swipe to turn off. 5. Wait at least 5 mins, longer might be necessary especially the first time. (This is to allow your accounts to be un-linked on the server). 6. Power on, start Game Center and log in, next start the Sims FP. 7. Go into the cloud icon and verify the time since the last saved game, if it is longer ago than your last save (at step 1) you are looking at the Game Center linked account. If not, you'll have to wait (at least with cloud saving). It can take over 24 hours to unlink. Reversing: I hope this helps in cloud saving for both accounts, I've had varying success with this, sometimes it took me only 10 minutes, but also over 12 hours to be able to save (to GC) or even over 24 hours to unlink the two when accidentally being logged in on both again. I have reported this as a bug at FM's support site, but no replies to it yet. Connecting to the cloud is how you save your game so if you ever have a problem with your device or want to change devices knowing how to connect to the cloud will stop you from losing your game, for example, if you wanted to change your device you would be able to get your game onto that new device within 7 days and you won’t have to start all over again- it is a good idea to do it everyday just as a back up in case!
(it does automatically do it if you connect to the party boat but it is always useful to know how to do it yourself) Connecting to the Cloud To connect to the cloud you need to firstly be connected to Facebook, Apple, Game Center or Google Play Games (how to connect to Facebook and Game Center are covered in my Adding Neighbours post as both these can be used to add neighbours) Sign in with Apple is a new option for Apple products so you can sign in with your Apple ID (on the settings screen- see under ‘uploading’ in this post- click on the key button (bottom right) to sign in with your Apple ID: Sorry I no longer have an Android so I cannot show you how to connect your game to Google Play Games (this is where you download your games from) Uploading Once connected go into settings in the game (click on the green button with 3 white dots on it) you will then see these options: Click on the cloud button and you will see this window appear: Click upload save data and your game will be saved Click here to watch my video on how to save to the cloud Help! My neighbours can’t see an item in my town, why is that? They can’t see it because they aren’t seeing the most up to date version of your game, you need to connect to the cloud for them to see this version of your game. Downloading If you are transferring to a different device you can select on that device from in the game ‘download save data’ and you will have your game back as long as you are connected to the same account that you saved your game from on your other device: NOTE: if you are planning to go from an Android to an Apple or the other way around and you want to keep your game, make sure you save to Facebook as this is the only option to save available on both devices. Unable to connect to the cloud? If you can’t connect click on the Facebook icon in the settings and it will probably say unknown user so log out and log in again and it should work! If it still isn’t working you may want to contact the makers to see if there is anything they can do to fix this for you, this post explains how to contact them if you are unsure.
